Sobbing Tiger

A sadness.

Crying flame in these my tears

Falling rain produce my fears

Hold on to past forget my days

Dreams come fast but quickly drain

I promise myself I will change

But I don't and so I fade

oh yes .....this poem definitely is the depth itself.. to me, it is even philosophical.....it is saying that everything is transcient... it is utterly sweet construction, in its brevity...loved the first stanza.. to me this has got another, yes if you want, psychological observation, telling me: "discipline yourself" . Hm, laced with equal parts of this and that argument... the negative ending is actually not negative: it is an encouragement to invest stamina more than dwelf on a failure.. I liked !

I have felt this way so many times. It's hard to change, but I think that it's USUALLY worth the effort. Not always. I have changed some things that I wish like hell I could change back, but we go on and that is life. Great poem. I like the first line best. Is it because tears are hot? Very intriguing.
